OTE=Bruce Day;261119]I’ll bet this rifle cost far more than an annual membership in the Parker Shotgun Collectors Association.[/QUOTE]
Bruce your math skills are amazing
just a heads up it was more than a life membership BUT I'll get a lot of pleasure from this investment. Seeing it was you who made the comment that the annual member wasn't committed to the PGCA I ask What's your point!?
I have never been a fan of the 06 either. No real reason really I have a pre 64 FWT but have never shot it. My favorite caliber is the 7x57 (275 Rigby). Others are the 257 Roberts the 250 and 300 Savages. I have almost everything and can hunt anything on the planet with a rifle suitable for the game intended. This is my first 6.5x55 but I'm liking it a lot so far. I had a Creedmore in a #1 but it left me cold.
